There are often some upsets in the group stage of the World Cup, but nothing compared to this one. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoBrazil lost 0-1 to China, which can be called the biggest upset in the history of the World Cup.

When many people heard this score, they thought that the Brazilian team deliberately released water, but no one who watched this game had this idea. In this game, the Brazilian team's performance was not bad, tactics, coordination, and personal ability were fully played, and what was lacking may be just a little luck, many of their seemingly must-score goals were stopped by Zhang Guan. And the loss of points at the last moment can also be seen as a sneak attack by Zhang Guan.

Anyone who knows the ball can see that Zhang Guan is the key to this game. The overall defense of the Chinese team, strictly speaking, is the world's second-rate level, which is still the effect of the Chinese team after putting all its experience into defense, and this kind of defense will definitely not be able to stop Brazil's sharp attack. Therefore, the Chinese team relies on the last line of defense in front of Zhang Guan's goal.

Whether it's strength or luck, but the result has been decided, the Brazilian team loses, and the Chinese team wins. As a result, the Chinese team has the possibility of qualifying.

In the other match of the group at the same time, Poland comfortably beat Nigeria. According to the schedule, the next match in Group E will be played on June 22, with Brazil taking on Nigeria and China facing Poland.

Known as the "White Eagles of Europe", Poland is an easily overlooked team, they are not giants, but they actually have a strong strength, and their world ranking is relatively stable between 10 and 15. Although Poland is not seeded, Poland's hard power is not inferior to the eight seeded teams, and among the unseeded teams, Poland is definitely the first-class, almost a quasi-seeded team.

Poles are actually a very good people to play football, such as Klose, Bordoski, Troshowski in Germany, Andy Johnson in England, etc., are actually players of Polish origin. And now Lewandowski, the number one star of the Polish team, is also considered the best striker in Europe. In addition, Poland also has Blaszczykovski, Piszczek, Kričoviak and others, all of whom are also first-class stars in Europe.

In the face of the Polish team, China still sent a purely defensive lineup, obviously preparing to save a draw. Of course, the Polish team hopes to get all three points from the Chinese team, because Poland only needs to win the Chinese team to qualify in advance. If it can't win against the Chinese team, Poland's next game against Brazil will definitely be a situation of more losses and fewer wins.

So this game turned into a battle of spear and shield, with the Polish team constantly attacking, and the Chinese team constantly defending.

The Brazilian team failed to break through Zhang Guan's five finger mountain, and the Polish team was even more impossible, they attacked the whole game, and finally could only accept the 0-0 result, it is worth mentioning that the goalkeeper of the Polish team did not participate in the attack at the last minute, he was obviously worried that Zhang Guan once again staged a good show of the goalkeeper opening his foot and scoring directly.

The Chinese team also paid a red card again for this, and ate 3 red cards in two games, and the Chinese team is the team with the most red cards in this World Cup.

A draw brought 1 point to the Chinese team and the Polish team, both sides are 4 points, the Polish team is temporarily in the first place in the group because of the advantage of goal difference, and the Chinese team is the second in the group.

On the other side, Brazil beat Nigeria 7-0. The anger of the Brazilian team's last defeat was all vented on Nigeria. Nigeria is also unlucky, two consecutive defeats to say goodbye to the World Cup in advance, not to mention, and the loss is ugly. Brazil finished third in the group with all three points.

In the final group game, Brazil vs. Poland and China vs. Nigeria. Both China and Poland will qualify with a draw, while Brazil will have to win if they want to qualify.

is also a draw, the Chinese team is very easy, because the opponent Nigeria team has been eliminated, there is no reason to continue to fight with the Chinese team to the end. The difficulty of Poland's draw is difficult to reach, because a draw means that Brazil will be eliminated, how can Brazil allow themselves to be eliminated in the group stage?

The result was not as unexpected as China drew 0-0 with Nigeria and Brazil beat Poland 3-1.

In Group E, Brazil has 6 points with 2 wins and 1 loss and qualified as the first in the group, China has 5 points with 1 win and 2 draws, ranking second in the group, Poland has 4 points with 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss, and Nigeria has 1 draw and 2 losses and 1 point. Brazil and China managed to qualify, while Poland and Nigeria were eliminated from the tournament.

In the group stage of the World Cup, there are not many cases of 1 win to advance, and the situation of advancing to the knockout round after only scoring 1 goal is more like a fairy tale.

At home, the whole country is jubilant, according to the strength of the Chinese team, it is difficult to score a goal, and qualifying from the group is something that everyone dare not imagine. Now that the national team has qualified for the group, it has mobilized the enthusiasm of the people of the whole country. Some experts even proposed that primary and secondary schools should have a football lesson every day to strengthen football education in China.

……

According to the rules, the second place in Group E will face the winner of Group F, which is the first team in Group F.

The French men's football team, a traditional European giant, needs no introduction to its strength. Although the French love football is much worse than that of the United Kingdom, Italy and the Netherlands, the youth training system of French football lacks the best in the whole of Europe, with leagues since elementary school, a town of less than 10,000 people, with U9, U13, U17, U19 and local Lindsays, as well as provincial leagues, autonomous league leagues, and then low-level professional leagues. Moreover, France has a tradition of accepting immigrants for many years, and many excellent players have been born among the descendants of immigrants, such as Zidane, who is a descendant of immigrants. At the same time, due to France's long history of colonizing Africa, there are also many excellent black players in the French team, and Henry was the representative of French black players back then.

In the past two years, French football has obviously risen in Europe, and the world ranking has always been at the forefront of Europe, and it is even known as a team with a certain championship appearance.

In the face of the French team, China still put up a big bucket formation to defend, and the French team also did not break through the Chinese team's goal in 90 minutes of regular time.

The World Cup reached the knockout stage, and if it was drawn, it would be overtime, so then the Chinese team suffered another 30 minutes of overtime bombardment, the price of several yellow cards, and Zhang Guanshen's save, successfully blocked the attack of the French team.

"The referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, but the score was still 0-0, and the next thing was to decide the winner through a penalty shootout!" The narrator's high-pitched voice rang out.

The camera showed the coaches of both sides, and the bench of the Chinese team obviously began to cheer, and many people seemed to be celebrating the victory.

"The Chinese team seems to be very happy. But isn't it too early to celebrate? The game isn't over yet! The commentator from Europe said disdainfully.

However, after a few minutes, he knew why the Chinese team was so happy.

The penalty shootout was only played four rounds, and after the four rounds, the Chinese team scored three goals, which was not a good result, but the French team was even worse, three goals were saved in four rounds of penalties, and only one penalty was scored. With a score of 3-1, there is no need for a penalty shootout in the fifth round.

"What's going on? What's wrong with the French team? Only one of the four penalties was scored! ”

"It's not the problem of the French team, it's because the goalkeeper of the Chinese team is Zhang Guan! Didn't you see it just now, the French team's second penalty, the angle and speed were already so perfect, but they were still saved by Zhang Guan. ”

"No wonder China's bench was so happy just now, it turned out that Zhang Guan still thought he was a master of saving penalty kicks."

"We should have thought about that, didn't Zhang Guan save a penalty against Brazil, it looks like he's really good at saving a penalty."

"Not only is he good at it, he saved 3 of the 4 balls, it was a god-like penalty save."

The Chinese team entered the quarterfinals with a penalty shootout, and the opponent they met in the quarterfinals was Portugal led by Cristiano Ronaldo.

……

"Shameless! The Chinese team played too shamelessly! The whole game was defending, not even half the game, but in the end they won the game! If every team were like the Chinese team, football would be nothing to watch, and football would definitely perish because of it, and FIFA should ban the use of this tactic! Ronaldo's face turned pale, and he said angrily to the camera of a Portuguese reporter.

This also can't blame Ronaldo, Ronaldo's psychology is indeed too aggrieved at this time. Portugal were attacking the whole game, and Ronaldo himself even had several wonderful shots on goal, but the Portuguese team still did not score a point. The onslaught was 120 minutes without scoring, which was already very depressing for Portugal, but in the final penalty shootout, he lost to the Chinese team, which almost made Ronaldo's emotions collapse.

Cristiano Ronaldo is 33 years old this year, and he is starting to enter the downhill stage of his career, perhaps this will be his last World Cup, and he is eager to lead Portugal to a better and better result, and even win the eventual title. However, he once again stopped in the quarterfinals of the World Cup, and was eliminated by the Chinese team. From now on, the World Cup will be the regret of his life.

After Ronaldo spoke, the French team also stood up and expressed their support for Ronaldo, and they lost in the same way as Portugal, naturally on the side of the Portuguese.

Subsequently, many European media also stood up and criticized the Chinese team's style of play, and the European media naturally will not stand on the side of the Chinese team, and the names of "lack of chivalry", "destroying the balance of football", "making football lose its enterprising spirit" and so on are all buckled on the head of the Chinese team. Even many media began to hype, demanding that FIFA ban the Chinese team from using this purely defensive tactic.

Once again, the European media showed their shamelessness. FIFA is in a muddy stance. In the face of the responsibilities of the European media, Zhang Guan scoffed.

"Our team is weak, don't we let the weak team play a defensive counterattack!" Zhang Guan said to the reporter who asked the question.

"Defending and counterattacking? We only saw you defending, but we didn't see you counterattacking. The reporter who asked the question continued rather angrily.

"It's not that we are weaker than our opponents, and before we have time to counterattack, the ball was snatched away by the opponent." Zhang Guan went on to say: "When we played against Brazil in the group stage, didn't we have a successful defensive counterattack and scored a goal. ”

The reporter was speechless for a while, and Zhang Guan obviously put on a posture of "I am weak and I am reasonable".

I only listened to Zhang Guan continue; "I heard that there are a lot of media claims that the tactics used by our Chinese team are shameless, I have to state one thing in advance, our Chinese team uses the tactics of authentic European teams, and our coach Lippi is also one of the most famous coaches in Europe, he brought the essence of Italian football defense to China, how can it be shameless tactics! Could it be that they are questioning that Italy won the World Cup 12 years ago? ”

The reporter at the scene remembered that the head coach of the Chinese team was Lippi, the top coach in Europe, who led Juventus to sweep Europe back then, and even led the Italian team to win the World Cup.

Italy itself is a team that pays attention to defense, and it is normal for the team brought out by the Italian coach to pay attention to defense.

Zhang Guan's words pulled Lippi and even Italian football into the water, which instantly blocked the mouths of the European media, Italy is also a traditional European powerhouse, Serie A is the world's top football league, Lippi has proved himself in Serie A or the World Cup, and it is impossible for the European media to slap themselves in the face.

And the Italians, who have long been eliminated, also stood up, and they also put on the posture of successes.

"Even a weak team like the Chinese team, using our Italian tactics, was able to kill France and Portugal one after another and enter the semi-finals of the World Cup, which shows that our Italian football is the real first in Europe!"

This performance of the Italians has made many European media unable to complain, if you Italy really have the ability, how can you be eliminated? However, many people who are familiar with Italians are not surprised, and the characteristics of Italians are like this, fanatical, inefficient, not very organized, often late, but when it comes to the time to fight for credit, they are the first to run out. It's not once or twice to boast of being the first in Europe.

In the face of Italy's boasting, European football powerhouses such as Spain, England and France did not have much rebuttal because they were also eliminated, but Germany was different, Germany remained in the top four, and it was the only European team in the top four, and their opponent in the semi-finals was precisely the Chinese team.

On July 10, the first match of the World Cup semifinals, Brazil played Argentina, and the encounter between these two old enemies on the stage of the World Cup semifinals naturally attracted the attention of the world. Under the leadership of Messi, Argentina defeated Brazil and successfully advanced to the final.

On the other hand, the contest between Germany and China is obviously one-sided and optimistic about Germany. In the World Cup in Brazil four years ago, it was Germany and Argentina who finally reached the final, and Gotze's strike helped Germany lift the Hercules Cup, and after four years, the two teams are likely to meet again.

But the premise is that Germany has to pass the Chinese team.

On July 11, at the Luzhniki Stadium, the German team suffered the same experience as France and Portugal.

In the 5th minute, Khedira's left-footed shot was saved by Zhang Guan; In the 12th minute, Gnabry's low right-footed shot in the penalty area was saved by Zhang Guan; In the 19th minute, Gnabry's long-range shot was slapped out of bounds by Zhang Guanyi; In the 27th minute, Gotze's second pass in front of the penalty area had deceived all the defenders of the Chinese team, and Hector faced Zhang Guan in the middle of the penalty area, but let Ran not score. In the 40th minute, Gomez's sweeping shot from the middle of the penalty area was blocked again.

At the start of the second half, Gomez was brought down in the box and the penalty hit the post; In the 54th minute, Gundogan took a free kick and shot directly out of the goal; In the 63rd minute, Gnabry hit the post again with a shot. In the 68th minute, Gotze's corner kick fell on the top of Zhang Guan's head and was hugged by Zhang Guan.

The German team knew how good Zhang Guan was, so they tried to shoot from a more tricky angle, but then they missed or hit the post again and again.

German goalkeeper Ter Stegen stood a little forward, Zhang Guan seized the opportunity to drive the ball to the German team's goal, Ter Stegen reflected immediately, and finally slapped the ball in the other direction before the ball fell into the goal, and the German team was also scared into a cold sweat.

"You really can't take it lightly, otherwise you will end up losing the game like the Brazilian team!"

After a sneak attack, the German team only recovered for half a day, and the German team's offensive also seemed to have weakened by three points.

After 120 minutes of offense and defense, the referee's whistle blew, and the game was dragged into extra time.

"It's another penalty shootout!" The crowd was excited, and in terms of spectacle, the penalty shootout was much better than some ordinary goals.

The audience is watching the excitement and not thinking that it is a big deal, but the hearts of the German team players are a little broken.

In the first four rounds of penalty shootouts, Zhang Guan successfully saved two of them. And Gotze finally realized why Ronaldo was so angry in an interview.

In the first four rounds of penalty kicks, the Chinese team scored three, and the score was also too much to lead 3-2, and in the final fifth round of penalties, the Chinese team did not score, which gave the German team a chance, if the German team can score, then the score of the two sides is 3-3 draw, and there will be a "sudden death penalty".

Gotze himself was at the penalty line, having beaten Argentina in the 113th minute in the World Cup final in Brazil four years ago, and now it was a crucial penalty that fell to him.

Gotze took a deep breath and suddenly activated. Lift your feet, kick the ball! The next moment, he saw that Zhang Guan did not move.

Götze was overjoyed, the direction of his shot was the top right corner of the goal, which was a tricky angle, and if the goalkeeper didn't anticipate it in advance and wait until the ball flew out to make a judgment, it would definitely be too late.

However, Gotze still underestimated Zhang Guan's explosiveness, only to see Zhang Guan jump high, the last to come first, and his fingers just blocked the ball.

"Pounced out! 3 to 2, the Chinese team won! ”

Gotze fell to his knees in disappointment, crying bitterly on his back.

……

Who can break the Chinese team's goal?

The sports media around the world are talking about it, the World Cup is coming to an end, and no team has been able to score from the Chinese team in regular time, including Brazil, France, Portugal and Germany, which are the best teams in the world. And the Chinese team relied on defense to force a draw and kick a penalty kick and reached the World Cup final, which has never happened.

At this point, there is only one name that comes to mind, Leo Messi!

Messi, who has won almost all football-related honors, is only one World Cup winner away. Four years ago in Brazil, he led Argentina to the final, only to be defeated by Germany, and four years later, he led Argentina to the final of the Hercules Cup. For the 31-year-old Messi, this World Cup may be the only chance of his career to win the title.

At this time, Messi and even the entire Argentine team are facing a completely unfamiliar opponent - the Chinese team.

No one could have imagined that the Chinese team would enter the final of the World Cup!

As a South American team, there are not many opportunities to play against Asian teams, let alone two teams that are several notches behind. For Argentina, even if it is a warm-up game, it will not clash with the Chinese team, the strength of the two teams is too different, it can be said that with the strength of the Chinese team, Argentina will not have any warm-up effect at all, but across half the world will increase the fatigue.

However, now, Argentina has met the Chinese team in the World Cup final, and he still has to face a problem, that is, how to break the Chinese team's goal.

If it was placed before the World Cup, even if the Chinese team of 11 people only defended and did not attack, Messi would feel that it was only a matter of time before the Chinese team scored the goal, but now, Messi does not think so. Zhang Guan did not concede a goal in the World Cup, and in the penalty shootout, he played a far better ability than other goalkeepers, and could almost achieve a 50% probability of saving the ball. One of the two goals can be saved in a penalty shoot-out, which basically means that the penalty shoot-out can be won 100 per cent.

"We have to break through the Chinese goal in 120 minutes, and if we delay it to the penalty shootout, we may really lose!" Messi secretly made up his mind.

……

On July 15, at the Luzhniki Stadium, the World Cup finally ushered in the final match.

For the players of the Chinese team, they never thought that they could enter the final of the World Cup. The Hercules Cup is like a dream, not a dream, for Chinese players. Dreams have a chance to come true, but dreams are the kind of nonsense that can only be thought about in the mind.

Today, however, they are standing in the World Cup final. For the players of the Chinese team at this time, it seems that winning or losing has become an indifferent matter, and they are more like they are here to realize their dreams. Everyone seemed nervous and excited.

However, being too excited is not a good thing. Just one and a half minutes into the opening period, Cuadrado broke through on the right and had a chance to cross in front of Mercado, who fired a powerful left-footed shot that was saved by Zhang Guan at the last minute.

Five minutes later, the Chinese team players tripped Messi with a kick and received the first yellow card, and then Messi took a free kick outside the arc, which seemed to be out of bounds, but the landing point was in the goal, almost piercing the Chinese team's goal. Fortunately, Zhang Guan was shrewd and stopped the ball at a critical moment.

"It's a pity, I almost got in! If you change to another goalkeeper, you will definitely not be able to prevent it! Messi said secretly in his heart.

And Zhang Guan was also shocked into a cold sweat, only six minutes into the opening game, the Argentine team presented two very threatening attacks, and Messi also brought unprecedented pressure to Zhang Guan.

In the 11th minute, Messi made a direct pass, Higuain shot at the top of the penalty area, and was pushed out of bounds by Zhang Guan, three minutes later, Messi went straight again, Di Maria hit a long-range shot in the goal, and then was taken into the arms of Zhang Guan. In the 18th minute, Messi got the ball on the right side, shook three Chinese players in a row, and then suddenly picked up the pass with his left foot to the Chinese team's goal, Prato jumped up and was ready to head the goal, fortunately Zhang Guan attacked in advance and took the lead in grabbing the ball in his hand, Prato's head was signed to Zhang Guan's chest, and the result was warned by the referee.

In the 26th minute, Messi got another free kick opportunity in front of the penalty area, and he adjusted his state and shot directly with his feet. However, Zhang Guan was like a big mountain, guarding in front of the Chinese team's goal, making Messi's free kick again in vain.

The game has become the trend of the previous games, the Chinese team desperately defended, the Argentine team desperately attacked, and the time passed little by little, but there was never a goal.

Messi hasn't given up, Argentina hasn't given up, they're still attacking, they've taken the essence of Argentine football to the extreme. However, the Chinese team on the other side also brought that kind of unyielding and tenacity to the extreme. Although the physical advantage is not dominant, the players of the Chinese team are not afraid of physical confrontation at all, and they bravely collide with the Argentine.

In the 90th minute, there were still 10 men left on the pitch of the Chinese team, but Argentina still failed to score.

In overtime, another person from the Chinese team was sent off for accumulating two yellow cards, and the Argentine team played 11 to 9, completely crushing the Chinese team, but every time he attacked, he was stopped in front of the goal by Zhang Guan.

"Looks like it's going to be a penalty shootout again!" A lot of people are already aware of this.

Messi struggled to kick the last ball, and then watched Zhang Guan take the ball away, and then the referee's long whistle sounded in his ears.

At the end of extra time, Argentina, like other teams, failed to break through the Chinese team's goal.

"Penalty shootout! It's a penalty shootout again! Since the Chinese team entered the knockout stage, it has not scored a single goal, but it relied on penalty shootouts to enter the final. With Zhang Guan's god-like play in the penalty shootout, it is definitely an unwise move to play a penalty kick with the Chinese team! It looks like Argentina will also encounter what happened to other teams, who dominated the whole game and lost the game in the end! ”

In the commentator's words, Argentina's goalkeeper Romero looked excited, because he is also a master of saving penalty kicks!

In the last World Cup, Argentina defeated the Netherlands, relying on penalties, and Romero saved two penalties at that time, which can be said to be the biggest contributor to Argentina's victory.

Today, Romero stood in front of his goal for more than 120 minutes, did nothing, the Chinese team had no intention of passing half the court at all, and Romero could only watch his teammates fight hard in front.

However, when it came to the penalty shootout, Romero finally had the opportunity to play his strengths. And he wants to let the world know that he is the first person to save a penalty!

Argentina were the first to take the penalty was Gonzalo Higuain, who was clearly sent in an attempt to get off to a good start.

But Higuain disappointed the Argentine fans, he chose the position in the bottom right corner, the angle was not very good, and Zhang Guan saved the ball with both hands.

"Whoa!" The Chinese fans at the scene all shouted excitedly.

However, then, Romero was also in great form, and also saved the penalty of the Chinese team. Romero, who saved the penalty, raised his head to the sky and roared, venting his excitement.

Sergio Aguero came on for a penalty, and he picked a high spot, which was directly slapped down by Zhang Guan with a basketball block. Then the Chinese team was unlucky and hit the post with a penalty.

Argentina's Angel Di Maria came on, and instead of opting for a tricky arrangement, he wanted to break through with a quick ball. But Zhang Guan's speed was faster, he didn't even use the save action, and just made a quick sliding step and held the ball in his arms.

However, the Chinese player's penalty lacked some strength and was also blocked by Romero.

After three rounds, no one from both sides scored, and it was still 0-0 on the same running line.

In the fourth round, Argentina Mascherano appeared on the court and still did not break through Zhang Guan's Wuzhi Mountain, while the Chinese team finally scored.

1-0, the Chinese team leads, and both sides each have one chance to take a penalty.

For Argentina, the goal had to be scored, and at this point, Messi came on.

Messi and Zhang Guan met head-to-head again.

I saw Messi standing at the free throw line, without saying a word, and directly raised his foot. The ball changes direction in the air and goes straight into the corner of the goal.

"In! 1 to 1, Messi scored the first goal for the Argentine team, and then it depends on whether the Chinese team can score! ”

As long as the Chinese team scores this goal, they can win the championship. However, Romero made another god-like save and saved the ball of the Chinese team for the third time.

At the end of the five rounds, Zhang Guan saved four and Romero saved three, which can be regarded as the performance of god-level goalkeepers, but considering the difference in the strength of the players of Argentina and China, Romero's saving penalty is obviously not as good as Zhang Guan.

"Five rounds of penalties, it was only 1 to 1, and the goalkeepers on both sides played at a top level! And then it's the turn to add penalties. Sudden death, if one side scores and the other team does not, the side that doesn't score loses the game! ”

Argentina sent Biglia into the field. He is like Messi, who walked on the field and shot directly without saying a word. However, he did not have Messi's level, his ball did not fall into the corner, but was stopped by Zhang Guan.

"Saved, Zhang Guan saved, and then as long as the Chinese team scored the ball, they won!"

Messi opened his mouth to comfort: "It's time for the Chinese team to send defenders to the field to take penalties." Don't worry, unlike Brazil, the Chinese team is not good at taking penalties from Asian defenders. And they defend all over the field, and their physical strength has been exhausted, and the penalty kick will not be of good quality. ”

Messi was talking, but saw Zhang Guan walk forward, and he was ready to take the penalty himself.

"Zhang Guan, it's Zhang Guan! Is he going to take the penalty himself? ”

"How can you forget Zhang Guan, when he was in the World Cup qualifiers, he played as a striker, and he was the top scorer in the Asian region of the World Preliminary Tournament!"

The Argentine team suddenly became nervous, originally they thought that it would be the Chinese defender who stepped forward to take the penalty, but they didn't expect it to be the big boss himself.

At this moment, Argentine goalkeeper Romero's expression was unprecedentedly serious, and Zhang Guan just stood opposite, which made him feel invisible pressure.

In the distance, the light shone on the Hercules cup, emitting a golden glow, and perhaps the next moment it would have a new owner.

The scene was extremely quiet, and everyone held their breath, waiting to watch the decisive moment.

Zhang Guan stood there, motionless, his eyes staring straight at the goal.

Time seems to freeze in this moment, not only in the stadium, but also outside the stadium, in front of the TV, in the eyes of every spectator.

In the next second, Zhang Guan finally moved, not suddenly, just a slight run, and then got up.

No hesitation, no fancy, direct and crisp kick-up shot.

The football flies and spins in the air, and at this moment, it seems to be a beautiful elf, flying dexterously in the air, making people wonder the direction.

The next moment, the elf flew into the goal and was caught in the net.

Ball in!

(End of book)

Said the passer

Thank you, my tenth leader, for making a "perfect" pass before the ending! I will send a postscript and a preview of the new book later, thank you.
